Tenjaku Whisky

Description

Nose

Opinions on the nose can vary. Some describe it as having a faint smokiness alongside floral notes like pear blossom and dried fruits (raisins, sultanas). Others mention aromas of raw grain and old wood with hints of amber perfume and burnt sugar.

Palate

This is where Tenjaku’s smoothness comes in. Expect a gentle cereal sweetness with prominent caramel tones. Hints of leather and toasted rice add complexity, while some reviewers detect a touch of herbal bitterness on the back of the tongue.

Finish

The creamy oak spice lingers, leaving a pleasant warmth. Some tasters describe a floral elderflower note at the very end, while others mention a slightly spicy character with a hint of white oak and lingering sweetness.
